I had my period for 5 days, and then it stopped on day 6. on day 7 it came back, and it was really heavy with a lot of clots. should i see a doctor?

Happen alot?: One abnormal period does not require a doctor visit. If you always have heavy periods there are lots of options. Birth control pills can regulate your cycle. Mirena (levonorgestrel) iuds can minimize your periods. Lysteda is a great new hormone free drug used to stop heavy periods. If you are done with pregnancies ask if you are a candidate for an endometrial ablation.
